Energy transition
Get a deeper understanding of how greener, cleaner energy is driving change
The global energy market is undergoing permanent, structural change, away from fossil fuels, towards renewable energy and electrification.
Without commodities such as lithium and cobalt, there will be no energy transition. Companies extracting and producing these materials play a critical role in meeting the world’s climate goals.
Our cross-commodity experts provide you with energy transition forecasts, market news and analysis. This will help you identify risks, make sense of supply/demand dynamics and understand how the energy transition impacts price.
